We had a beautiful private event here. The food was excellent, the flavour combinations and presentation were impeccable. The service was some of the best we've received anywhere. Well done Bourbon & Butter!

WOW! An amazing dinner, we had two teens with us and they loved it too! All 4 of us loved the food. The Chef came out and chatted with us and his first question was to the kids! They loved it and felt very important! Beautiful atmosphere with incredible art by local artists on the wall. Oh and the cheesecake was the absolute most amazing cheesecake we had ever had! We will be back!

Food was great, service was mediocre. Had to wait a while to even order drinks. Had the beef feature definitely overpriced for what it is. My fault for not asking for the price before ordering it as it was priced considerably higher than anything else on the menu. It's fine if it's what they need to charge but it would be good to know if it's going to cost that much more considering everything else has a price on the menu except for the beef feature. As it was my wife's birthday I asked if they had a birthday special, the waitress replied that yes they did. They had a cheesecake that she could get my wife. Ended up getting charged for the dessert as well, so no they don't have a birthday special. Definitely not going back.

My friend and I went to eat out. Got confusing with the amount of waitresses who introduced themselves to us. The first one said she'd be back to explain the menu to us but never came back. We got Gabriel after that and she did very well. Really nice, sweet, and personable. She took the time to explain and re-explain the menu. She even offered to have the sauces and such put off to the side when we were unsure of them. We agreed and were grateful for it as the sauces weren't that great. The food was good and I really liked the coconut rice. I couldn't finish all the chicken and had one full piece left, a carrot, and some rice. Gabriel said she'd put it in a to go container. My friend got the pork chop. The portion size was smaller but it costed more so that seemed strange to me but she enjoyed it. I'd say the food was a bit overpriced for what you get. The jerk pork also had a sauce that didn't compliment the pork at all. Too strong. The pork itself was good. The atmosphere was very noisy with the amount of people there (couldn't be helped, obviously). The lighting is terrible. Way too dim. We left after paying and then I remembered I never got my leftovers. Went back in and Gabriel looked nervous as she told me the chef threw it out. She kept apologizing. I wasn't mad at her but there was no offer to remake, refund, or give a dessert or something in place of it. Basically, I lost 1/3 of my chicken and nothing was done to rectify it. I have absolutely no plans on coming back to this establishment. Put a bitter taste in my mouth. You pay $37 for a meal and the chef throws the leftovers out? Thanks.

My wife and I attended for a date night dinner. Amazing service off the hop and a great table waiting for us. We started with the scallop ceviche - and oh lord, what an amazing combination of flavours, I could have had multiple plates of it. My wife ordered the arctic char and I had the prime rib. The char was cooked perfectly and the prime rib was exploding with flavours. Amazing little date night place with incredible food and a great atmosphere. We will definitely be back!!

This phenomenal restaurant (understatement) takes quality and excellence to the next level; from mouthwatering l’entrèe to plat principal, dessert and tailor cocktails. The restaurant itself is cozy and stylish, and high end with its unobtrusive service and great selection of drinks and food. The bone marrow, caramelized brûlée and served with a sweet garlic aioli is top, as is the fettuccini and the other plates ordered. The cocktails were strong and the food unbelievable. It’s worth going in a group or solo- Do book in advance on weekends as they may fill up quite quickly. The chef cake out to speak with my friend; and he is a master chef, in my opinion. Definitely an incredible jewel. I’m looking forward to going again.

What a gem. The food was excellent. The service was attentive and outstanding. Not only am I a food snob, I am celiac and need careful food prep. I have other sensitivities as well. The chef adjusted my meal and whereas I often still feel affected by eating out, I absolutely feel great. This is THE fine dining spot to try when in Lethbridge. AND… they have a gluten and dairy free dessert… this means I have to come back. No more sorbet or fruit cup for me😍

Bourbon & Butter is exquisite. Every detail of our dining experience was outstanding. The staff was warm and attentive. The food was perfectly prepared and presented. It showed that the chef takes pride in sourcing fresh and high quality ingredients. This is a place where the chef is truly passionate about cooking and would never let anything go to a table that does not meet extremely high standards. He is a culinary artist of the highest caliber. You could put this restaurant in New York City and I would still rave about it. And I would wait weeks to snag a reservation. It is that good. You will not be disappointed.

This was our first Visit to Bourbon and Butter and the experience was very good. Service was excellent, all the servers made excellent recommendations, the Bone Marrow appy was very interesting and tasteful. The muscle broth was great with just the right amount of zest. We both had the rainbow trout done nicely, I would toss the potatoes from the dish. I highly recommend the Painkiller if you are a Rum fan. The place was busy with several large groups sitting, atmosphere is happy and not quiet. Overall a great first impression. With seasonal menu changes, we are looking forward to our next visit in the fall. Parking: 6 Street had become a boutique restaraunt area with limited parking, get there early if you want to park near the venue.

OMG. So flipping fantastic!!! I ve been wanting to try Bone Marrow for years after watching The Food Network;) It was incredible. Our mains (Fresh fettuccine and salmon) were unbelievable. So flavourful, good portion sizes and fun ingredients. Service was impeccable. Love the local 6th street support Chef Stella support staff, Herbal apothecary and Antojitos bits on menu. Highly highly recommend!!!

We had our small wedding reception here and it was phenomenal. 10/5! The staff were so friendly and helpful from the start, checking in often to ensure the perfect experience. They were able to accommodate vegan diets and tree nut allergies, on top of our special request to prepare for our wedding tea ceremony. They made some special cocktails for us for the night. They were absolutely on the ball for service! The food was incredible. We booked in their private upstairs room and it was perfect. Worth every penny and would definitely go again!

I thought it was over priced for what received. For example, my husband had the duck (must of been a baby duck it was so small) also very dry and over cooked. I had the pork loin and it was so buried in a acid tomato sauce, almost couldnt eat it. The service was very good though.

Honestly the only reason its getting a 4 out of 5 is simply because it is VERY expensive. The food was amazing, drinks were also great! But it did take quite a while for drinks to come out. Our waitress Emma was super awesome tonight! Atmosphere was also great.

The food is absolutely amazing and all their drinks pair very well with the food. My friends, family and I all really enjoyed the atmosphere the first year.. Unfortunately, over the past year, the service has really suffered, and the bartenders/part owner are no longer there, which really made the place feel so amazing. I feel the last few times Ive gone. Ive had to wait atleast 30 40 minutes after eating to get the bill. Foods always great just need a little more enthusiasm in the front house...

Perfection in every detail and smooth, articulate service. Food that is always interesting, tasty, plentiful, and beautiful. From the moment we arrive and are greeted warmly, to our departure, theres nowhere I would rather be in those moments. The chocolate cake is great, and is made superb by the toppings, including pomegranate seeds, caramel divine, and miso marshmallow. Vegetarian options: The Moroccan Winter Vegetable main course is heavenly. Brined apricot, olive, and onion salad is a counterpoint to the hearty root vegetable mixture, and sits happily next to roasted eggplant risotto. All of this is elevated by the accompanying Emporors Forbidden Rice Cracker. Crispy, tasty, pretty. Enjoy this delightful plate! Dietary restrictions: The winter menu is gluten free and perfectly satisfying and delicious.

When my wife and I are looking to go somewhere special, there isn t a better fine dining experience in Southern Alberta. The staff somehow remembers everyone and the experience has only gotten better each time we go. I had the mushroom pork chop which was on a mushroom and pea wild rice risotto. The live music was not overpowering or too loud and set a great overall experience for a night on the town. You don t have to leave Lethbridge to get a Michelin Star Fine Dining experience. (Not officially Michelin star but with a Sommelier on staff and a red seal chef, they are on track)

Fantastic upscale dining. You really get what you pay for here, and it is worth treating yourself. The space is small, and you will need to call in advance for reservations. Make sure you check the hours as well. We had an appetizer, main and dessert, and it was the perfect amount for me (I usually eat quite a bit, so the portions are fair). We also had mocktails that were super tasty, but they have a big list of cocktails. Service was super friendly and prompt, explained the menu very well, and answered all our questions.

Truly tailored service, fine dining and large portions. Two of us split the Lamb Shishliki (3 wonderful shish kebabs with individual pitas to stuff the lamb into and slaw on the side) and the full rack of BBQ Pork Back Ribs (with asparagus, slaw and homemade spaetzle on the side. Couldnt have chosen the better options to split, it filled this completely out and it was some of the best pork ribs Ive ever had. You will clean your plate of peach sauce with whatever food you can use to clean it up. The table service was probably the best Ive ever seen to each table, truly interested in making a good impression to every single customer. The decor and atmosphere is great. Parking: Angled parking along the street, made for these restaurants along this avenue.

We had the brûlée bone marrow to start, which was really good. I had the rainbow trout for the main, which was really good, and my dining guest had the duck breast which was phenomenal. For desert, we had the peach desert, which was also really good. The only problem is that because the place is tiny, it gets really loud. That being said, Ill be absolutely coming again.

Something has changed in the last few months. The drinks no longer have the ingredients or flavor that warranted the price.

Was once my favorite spot.

It was my last night in Lethbridge so I wanted to go all out and treat myself. The restaurant is small, dark and intimate and perfect for celebrating a birthday, anniversary or just getting together with close friends. The service is on-point. Morgan greeted me and since I was alone asked me if I wanted to sit at the bar. Since this was the perfect vantage point I could see how well she ran the place. The cocktail menu was exciting and I didn t know what to order. Morgan asked me the type of drinks I liked and suggested a Boulevardier. I think it s my new favourite cocktail! It s was Amy s first day behind the bar and she made my cocktail. In between her making drinks and me eating we had some wonderful conversation. I started with the Brûlée Bone Marrow and with its slight spiciness got my appetite started. It s perfect if you want something light to start with. Originally I wanted a steak but they had just changed their menu so I had the Artic Char with pearl cous cous. I m a fish person so I really enjoyed it. I had a refreshing glass of Sauvignon blanc with it. I finished the meal with a crème brûlée and decaf coffee. Morgan was very attentive and the timing of each course was perfect for me. Overall the service and food is excellent. I didn t take any photos like I ususally do. I was thoroughly enjoying the whole dining experience.

The only place that truly is fine dining in Lethbridge. Accomodated my wifes and my gluten allergy. The octopus was so tender and balanced, duck confit was amazing and Panna cotta blew me away! We tried a few different cocktail/Mockstails and they were all great. In the end we got the feature of sousvide octopus salad as an appetizer. Butternut squash soup. Tuna and duck confit as mains. Panna cotta as a desert. As a guy that always orders an old fashioned anywhere he goes, having a build your own old fashioned made me so happy. I didnt know what to expect but this was amazing. I will be back to try the wild boar and frog legs. And if they get a gluten free bread Id be all over the bone marrow. 6/5 stars easy. Support local!

All I have to say is, WOW! My wife and I chose Bourbon & Butter for our first date night out since the pandemic hit, and it was awesome. Our server Allison was lovely and did a great job of guiding us through the amazing menu. We started with the bone marrow and the boar belly which were both incredible (the honey-sesame dressing on the slaw served with the boar belly brought everything together so well -- if you couldnt tell, Im a big slaw fan). We then moved to the soup and salad course which were also both very good (the presentation of the Greek Salad was more along the lines of a modern tartine, served on a piece of toast with creamed feta and a delicious olive tapenade: non-traditional as far as salads go, but a pleasant surprise nonetheless). For our mains, my wife had the sablefish which came out with a beautifully-crisped skin, on a bed of bok choi and a mix of other vegetables (very yummy), while I opted for the duck confit. Having made duck confit at home in the past, I know how much of a labor of love it is, but these guys pulled it off so well: the duck was tender and flavorful, the skin was crispy, and everything on the plate worked so well with everything else. I was especially surprised at the bits of chorizo that complemented the cherry-blackberry compote so well (Im also absolutely going to steal the white bean garlic mashed potatoes idea, they worked brilliantly together). Hearkening back to the early days of Plum, I was surprised to see a confit tomato gracing the dish: it really brought me back to the good old days! Finally, to cap off the evening, we opted for a dessert of the Pot de Creme (an extremely decadent, luscious, chocolate custard) as well as the Bleu Cheese Cheesecake (we were both skeptical, but this turned out to be so delicious!). In particular, the delicate notes of bleu cheese worked so well with the coffee grounds and honey present in the crust (a combination I recognize from the cheese plate at Plum, circa 2016 and another nod to this restaurants history), and the rhubarb compote took all the complex flavors and grounded them in a really exceptional way. I know this is a long review, but we were so genuinely impressed with the food and the service at Bourbon and Butter that I feel more folks ought to branch out a little from the standard Lethbridge fare and treat themselves to an amazing night out here. Hats off to the staff, well be back very soon!

If you havent gone here, go here!!! You wont regret a second of it. The atmosphere is sexy, dreamy, elegant. The people are warm, kind and welcoming. The cocktails are phenomenal, the bar tenders are friendly and interesting The music is *chefs kiss* perfect AND if that doesnt convince you, my husband and I have been vegan for four years and had the pork belly, drunkenly, and havent felt bad about it for a G-D minute it was so delicious, the chefs are actual geniuses. Seriously the only place in lethbridge worth putting on a bra for, go go go!!!!

Ive had the great pleasure of dining at Bourbon a few times now as well as sitting at the bar for a few cocktails. The entire team has impressed me at every moment. Morgan & Grame are excellent hosts and dont hold back on making an evening out a special occasion. The wait staff Alison and Don always know the perfect time to deliver plates and refresh beverages. Chef Ryan makes his presence known throughout an evening and personally checks with a table or two to ensure customers are pleased with the fabulous food. Everything on the menu is top notch, savory, and delicious. The steak with gonnochi and greens was by far the best Ive ever had. The osso bucco was also a pleasure to try. (Pro tip: it also has a little bone marrow in the center) I also recommend having a drink at the bar. John and Tara are a delight to talk to and know their libations. I couldnt recommend Bourbon and Butter any more highly. They made my date night miraculous.

Nothing on the menu will disappoint.

Ok where to begin?!? In a word - spectacular! Having expensive taste, I confess to have eaten at seriously expensive restaurants This bested them all! Incredible Tuna, and the Blue-cheese cheesecake was truly divine! Terrific cocktails. First rate and knowledgeable service. Thank you!

My girlfriend and I had a lovely dinner last night! Service was excellent and attentive, dishes came out well paced and timely. The boar belly was full of umami with a nice crunchy fresh salad to balance the richness of the meat. The bone marrow was delicious but I wished for a bit less chimichurri (albeit delicious) so the flavour of marrow could shine! My girlfriends streak was perfectly cooked and seasoned while my chicken was tender and juicy with crispy skin. The pot de crème was rich and delicious and a perfect way to end the meal. Our only true complaint was the pickled peaches on the cheesecake, the flavour was incredibly strong and slightly off to the point of us being rather turned off by it. With everything else being so tasty and well prepared perhaps it was a mistake? Minus that it was an all round excellent restaurant experience, would definently come back to try more dishes as the seasons change. Thanks Alison for being a lovely server!

This is isnt a restaurant. This is an experience. Bourbon and Butter brings a dinning experience that is a cut above. The casual professionalism of how the staff presents its food and drink is a breath of fresh air. They do a wonderful job of creating a great dining experience. The flavors are bang on and hit every note. We appreciated that the slow food movment is still alive!! Thank you.

Wonderful meal, 10/10. Bartender was great, he gave me some brennavin (Icelandic firewater) to try. Appetizer was great, mains were great. Well worth the price - if I am in town again this will be one of my first ports of call.

We were delighted and appreciative beyond words to have enjoyed the dining experience at Bourbon and Butter. Our friends from BC raved about everything and praised the cocktails, appetizers and entrees and the spectacular service! Try the bone marrow appe and the octopus plate. Fantastic! Cudos to the staff and we really enjoyed speaking with Chef/Owner Mark. Cant find any fault or criticism!

Was told to check out this place. So my driver and I came down to Lethbridge on a work trip. We tried there bone marrow appetizer 5/5, (sounds weird but definitely give it a try because all the flavour compounds built into is well balanced.) Then we had the 10oz strip loin and holy moly ( asked for medium rare ) and it came out perfect! Very tender, the flavour on everything was so balanced. Best steak I ever had out of a fine dining restaurant. Been to a few top places in Edmonton and Calgary and a few in Arizona Scottsdale s and this is number 1 on my list. I m speechless :)

Super cool atmosphere! The food was super amazing, although the portions were relatively small. It was open late so we had lots of time to enjoy the place. The staff was incredibly caring and kind and everything was brought out to us pretty quickly. Drinks were expensive but so delicious so it was definitely worth it. There were also some complex and tasty non alcoholic options which was very refreshing to see. Desert was the best part. So freaking good! Overall I would recommend bourbon and butter to everyone I know!! Thanks for the amazing night!!

Seen all the reviews on Google. And we thought we should try it. Reviews werent lying. The food was amazing. Got the beef tenderloin and I could cut it with my fork. The roasted chicken was delicious too. We got the mussels as a starter and that was also amazing. Order another side of bread because you will want to soak up all that sauce on the bottom. Or just use your spoon that works too. Our server was Morgan she was great. Overall worth the price and the time to check this place out! Cant wait to be back !!

Ive been there twice the past few months. It is, in my opinion, the best fine dining in Lethbridge. It is *not* inexpensive, but the food is excellent only rivaled by the service which is excellent but not intrusive. Excellent staff, a changing menu every few months and fantastic cocktails. If I had to give a downside, the acoustics are quite poor. It can be very loud and difficult to hold a conversation especially if you have more than 4 at your table. Even with 4 it can be tough. If they can address that with maybe some sound absorbing decor it would be fantastic. BUT this does not take away from everything else. Absolutely excellent and the best dining option in Lethbridge. Actually, it would be an excellent dining option in a 1,000,000 population city. Expect to spend 2+ hours for a night out and get reservations for the weekend.

I have come here a lot, and to say the food is beyond fantastic is an understatement. While it is pricey, you can understand when you see and taste how amazing it is. Definitely worth the splurge to come out and grab a few drinks and have a great meal! And the best part is the dessert, its so hard to choose, and last time me and my boyfriend came in we had one of each, definitley worth it!

They were kind enough to fit us in on a very busy Friday night and we were so grateful to have such a wonderful and unexpected meal in Lethbridge. The food and drinks were incredible. My lamb was so tender I didn t even have to use a knife and my husband s steak was cooked perfectly. Everything we enjoyed had made in house touches like the toasted miso marshmallow that tops the chocolate cake. We would highly recommend Bourbon and Butter but definitely call for a reservation. We were incredibly lucky they could accommodate us.

Amber was our server, she was wonderful. The food was very good, the service was good, they made our eating experience wonderful. We were there for 3 hours. Their food suggestions were spot on. A few hiccups but they handled it in a very professional way to show us they valued us as customers. We will be back.

Service was friendly, but not very timely. I ll give them the benefit of the doubt due to the fact we had a very large party etc. The food was very tasty - but I just wish I had more of the starch component (potatoes) with my lamb. Will visit again!
